The new Rasmussen poll of the Wisconsin Senate race shows Republican businessman Ron Johnson continuing to lead Democratic Sen. Russ Feingold.
The numbers: Johnson 53%, Feingold 46%. The survey of likely voters has a ±4% margin of error. In the previous Rasmussen poll from two weeks ago, Johnson led by a similar margin of 52%-45%.
This particular poll would seem to suggest that Johnson’s recent gaffes — his multiple admissions that he doesn’t actually have any detailed policy proposals, only a general conservative philosophy — have not made changed the race very much.
The TPM Poll Average gives Johnson 52.3%, Feingold 44.9%.
